Four foods that become toxic when stored in the refrigerator

Although the refrigerator keeps food fresh, some foods should not be stored in the refrigerator because they can become toxic. Doctor Dimple Yangda, who is a specialist in gut health, stated on Instagram that these foods are garlic, onion, ginger and rice and revealed the reasons why this is so. Garlic Garlic can become soft if stored in the refrigerator. "Never store garlic in the refrigerator because it starts to mold very quickly, and mold on garlic is actually linked to cancer," Yangda said, advising to store garlic in a dry, dark place. "Garlic has a low acidity, which makes it prone to the deposition of the bacterium Clostridium botulinum, which is one of the culprits of botulism," she warned. Onion Onion is a crop that is resistant to low temperatures. The expert explains: "When you put onions in the fridge, the starch starts to turn into sugar and mold starts to form." Many people make this mistake. Cut the head of the onion, use half

Pellet fuel

Biofuels made from compressed organic matter or biomass are known as pellet fuels (or pellets). Any one of the five main types of biomass—industrial waste and co-products, food waste, agricultural leftovers, energy crops, and untreated lumber—can be converted into pellets. The most popular kind of pellet fuel is wood, which is typically produced from compacted sawdust and other industrial wastes left over from building, furniture manufacturing, and timber milling. Empty fruit bunches, palm kernel shells, coconut shells, and tree tops and branches thrown during logging operations are some additional types of industrial trash. In order to be used in currently operating coal-fired power plants, so-called "black pellets" were manufactured from biomass and polished to resemble hard coal.  The heating value, moisture and ash content, and size of pellets are used to classify them. They can be used as fuels for producing electricity, cooking, and heating in homes or businesses. Due to their high density and low moisture content (below 10%), pellets can be made and burned with a very high combustion efficiency.

Additionally, their precise calibration is made possible by the regular geometry and small size of the particles. Both auger feeding and pneumatic conveying are options for feeding them to a burner. Their great density also enables convenient long-distance transit and storage. They can easily be blown from a tanker to a silo or storage bunker on a customer's property.

Since the middle of the 1980s, a wide variety of pellet stoves, central heating furnaces, and other heating appliances have been created and sold. In Austria, fully automatic wood pellet heaters with a comfort level comparable to that of oil and gas boilers were first made available in 1997. The demand for pellet heating has grown across Europe and North America as a result of the rise in fossil fuel prices since 2005, and a large industry is beginning to take shape. The International Energy Agency Task 40 estimates that the output of wood pellets increased by more than twofold to over 14 million tons between 2006 and 2010. The Biomass Energy Resource Center predicts that in the following five years, wood pellet production in North America will quadruple once more in a report from 2012.

Artificial intelligence: Google's new model 'will outperform humans in solving intelligence tests'

Google has launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) model that it claims will "answer questions more carefully" because its "functionalities are more advanced". AI content generators sometimes invent things that developers call hallucinations.  The new Gemini model has been tested to solve problems in 57 areas, including mathematics and the humanities. "This is the new era of artificial intelligence," said Sundar Pichai, head of Google.  Earlier this year, Google launched its own version of the chatbot – Bard – calling it an "experiment".  During the presentation, the program made an error when answering the space question.  Google claims that the new model is "the most capable" and will outperform humans in solving intelligence tests.  Gemini can recognize image, text and sound, but it is not a product in itself.  It is a program that will be integrated into existing Google tools, including search, but also into the Bard

The global appetite for solar panels is exacerbating the silver shortage

Technological changes in the production of solar panels are increasing demand for silver, a phenomenon that is deepening a shortage in the supply of the precious metal, while there is limited opportunity on the horizon to secure additional mining, reports "Bloomberg". Silver, in paste form, is used for the conductive layer on the front and back of silicon solar cells. But the sector is already starting to produce more efficient variants of cells that use much more metal, and this will contribute to increasing the already growing consumption.   Solar power still represents a relatively small portion of total silver demand, but it is growing. According to a report by The Silver Institute, it will account for 14% of consumption this year, up from about 5% in 2014. Much of that growth is coming from China, which is expected to install more solar panels this year than the United States. Demand for silver from the solar industry is growing. Chart: Bloomberg Solar energy is “a great

ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE WRITE LAWS: A regulation written entirely by chatbots was adopted in Brazil

  The city council of Porto Alegre, the capital of the Brazilian state of Rio Grande do Sul, passed a law whose text was written entirely with the help of artificial intelligence (AI) produced by ChatGPT. The document was created by AI with the help of questions entered by city council member Ramiro Rosario, and the proposal of that law allows the municipality not to charge taxpayers for replacing water meters if they are stolen, reported TASS. The city council already approved the document, and it was signed by the mayor Sebastiu Melu, and the members of the council, the mayor, and the citizens only found out after the law was passed that it was completely written by AI. - Our strategy was not to tell anyone that the AI did it, we just wanted to conduct an experiment. In the coming years, society will face a revolution in various fields thanks to artificial intelligence, and politics will not be left out of these changes, Rosario said. The American company OpenAI introduced the ChatGP
